My friend got the Mac and Cheese and I got the cheddar bacon . Get the sour cream and the onions on the side. Mix them. Enjoy!

Emily Wilson

Stick with the pierogies (fried Mac n cheese and boiled bacon cheddar are both great). Bag the cucumber salad . And get an order of helen's dip and a Long Island iced green tea .

VEGAN menu !! Great vibe, food, and owners-- plus a fully vegan menu ! Can't wait to eat here again; all the pierogis are made fresh2order and--don't worry--the boiled are just as good as the fried ;)

Ashley

The pierogies were absolutely amazing! They tasted just like what you'd get in Poland and are made to order. We had the potato , bacon n cheddar , and the mac n cheese pierogies and they were delicious!

Tania

We are originally from Ukraine and we do know the real taste of good dumplings . These Slovakien guys make them soooooo good! With potato and greens, blueberry ones are beyond delicious!

ZenFoodster

Scrumptious sauerkraut & potato + cheese fried Slovakian perogies w/ served w/ choice toppings: caramelized onions or marinated mushrooms . Don't forget the sour cream & a smear of mustard . 😋

Came back when I realized I was about a block away and was not disappointed with the pierogies just as good as I remember and the staff the same lovely women too. Truly the best pierogies in Brooklyn.

Go for the classic, "a boiled variety filled with a piquant sauerkraut and tossed in butter and chives " via New York Magazine/Grub Street | The 30 Best (New) Cheap Eats in New York [July 12, 2015]

Crystal

We tried sauerkraut , jalapeño and potato & cheese . All were great, but the potato and cheese was particularly stellar. Nice selection of Slovak and Czech beers too, and friendly service .

Justin Ordoveza

There are a wide variety of pierogies , you can have them boiled or pan fried and topped with various things. The sauerkraut pierogies are delicious.

Annette Rubin

All perogis are delicious I specifically enjoyed the boiled jalapeño/potatoes option! For those in park slope looking for places to eat outside of 5th ave- do try this place out!

Megan Kelley

The absolute best pierogies I've ever had in my life! The service was wonderful, genuinely kind people working the register and in the kitchen. This place is a gem, don't miss out!

Randomly stumbled here but it's such a great place! Had the classic potato and cheese . I also had the blueberry Pierogies , which was surprisingly good!

Small location. Big flavors. Pan fried, comfort food heaven. One of my fellow diners called it "The Best Restaurant in Brooklyn!"

Spinach and feta cheese dumplings are super delicious. My recommendation is boiled ones.

Adorable shop. Come for the pierogies , but don't miss their carrot and apple slaw . It tastes like charoset, a traditional Passover dish.

Fantastic pierogies ! Loved the ricotta , the bacon and the feta/spinach

Mikahla Vicino

It's all about the bacon cheddar pierogies (fried) and the Baba's pierogies (boiled!). Definitely get the helen sauce, too.

Stick with pierogies (mac and cheese and bacon-cheddar), skip the salads and get a side of helens dip at this mimi cheng's-esque institution

Cheeseboat is a must! You could share one with a side for 2 people, or as a sharing option alongside entrees for a bigger group. Add in the truffle butter, it's so decadent! Take away box if you need! - Jessica Wickham
